Title: Election Day Cake
Categories: Desserts, Cakes, Holidays, Posted/tnt, Frostings
Yield: 16 Servings
2 pk Active dry yeast
1 1/2 c Warm water (110 to 115
-degrees)
2 ts Sugar
4 1/2 c Sifted flour
3/4 c Butter OR regular margarine
1 c Sugar
1 ts Salt
1 1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
1/4 ts Ground cloves
1/2 ts Ground nutmeg
1/4 ts Ground mace
2 Eggs
1 1/2 c Raisins
1/2 c Chopped citron
3/4 c Chopped nuts
Confectioners Sugar Frosting
Sprinkle yeast on warm water; stir to dissolve. Add 2
tsp sugar and 1-1/2 cup flour and beat well by hand,
or 2 minutes with electric mixer at medium speed.
Cover and let rise in warm place until bubbly, about
30 minutes.
Meanwhile, cream butter and 1 c sugar until light and
fluffy. Sift remaining 3 c flour with salt, cinnamon,
cloves, mace and nutmeg.
When yeast mixture is bubbly, add eggs to creamed
butter and sugar and beat well. Combine with yeast
mixture. Add remaining dry ingredients (flour, salt
and spices), a little at a time, beating with spoon
after each addition. Beat until smooth. Stir in
raisins, citron and nuts. Pour into well greased and
floured 10" tube pan. Cover and let rise in warm place
until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
Bake in moderate oven (375 degrees) 1 hour. Cool in
pan 5 minutes; turn out on rack to finish cooling.
While faintly warm, spread with Confectioners Sugar
Frosting. Makes 12 to 16 servings.
CONFECTIONERS SUGAR FROSTING: To 1 c sifted
confectioners sugar, add enough milk or light cream to
make mixture of spreading consistency. Add 1/2 tsp
vanilla and a dash of salt (or flavor with 1/2 tsp
lemon juice and 1/4 tsp grated lemon peel). Stir until
smooth. Spread on cake.
